BUDAPEST : Red Bull's Sergio Perez made a nightmare start to his Hungarian Grand Prix weekend by crashing after two minutes of Friday's opening practice before rain made the rest of the session largely meaningless.
"I cannot believe this," said Perez over the team radio, with the stricken car looking like it had suffered some heavy damage.The Mexican has failed to qualify in the top 10 in his last five races, only once standing on the podium in the same period, and needs a strong weekend with Red Bull reserve Daniel Ricciardo increasingly in the frame as a possible replacement.
"It’s obviously frustrating...hopefully it is contained mainly to the front right corner, which hopefully will be repairable in time for the next session," said team boss Christian Horner."Hopefully he won’t have lost too much through this session because in these conditions people aren’t getting many laps in. But obviously not an ideal way to start the weekend."
